    Italy Exports Of Jeans ( Men+Women) To Rest Of EU During 2014-2016

    From the year 2014 to the year 2016 , the journey was little up and down for Italy and failed to maintain the consistency. In 2014 , the total export of Men’s Jeans by Italy to rest of EU was 10.07 million pcs at an average price of Euro 29.79/Pc . The total export of Women’ Jeans for the same period was 8.35 million pcs at an average price of Euro 28.44/Pc . Year 2015 took a dip and the exports of Men’s Jeans decline to 9.58 million pcs and Women’s Jeans export dropped to 7.18 million pcs. Year 2016 brought some improvement in the export figure of Men’s Jeans export however the Women’s Jeans dropped to the level of 6.99 million pcs which were exported at the highest average price of Euro 31/Pc . However, if we see as total, we will find that the number of jeans exported to European countries is between 16-18 million pieces each year. The year 2017 projection shows that the export of jeans might be 5-6% higher than 2016 which is good news for Italy.

    Year Men Jeans ( Pcs) Average Price ( Euro/Pc) Women Jeans ( Pcs) Average Price ( Euro/Pc)

    On the whole, we find that Italy is doing great considering that it is the only important country in Europe still manufacturing jeans in large quantities. The volumes have not gone down inspite of economic troubles and troubles in the denim industry as well. The pricing of jeans is still at good levels compared to imports and women jeans prices seem to be rising over the last 3 years and are currently more than men jeans as an average.

  • Colombian Denim Buyers In Aug-Sept. 2017

    Colombia has been known for its innovation in the denim world and constantly investing its resources in R&D to bring new innovation in line with global trends. The country has over 12  trade agreements which allows this country a preferential access to EU , Canada and Mexico . The country is under negotiation to sign a bilateral trade agreement with Japan and Turkey also. The country is demographically rich and thus enjoying the demographical dividend due to its proximity to Panama Canal which paves a smooth connection between the East Coast of the U.S. and Asia.

    Further to our previous reports, we are providing here a special report on the buyers in Colombia who are importing denim fabrics from around the world. The contents of the report are as below :

    Ready To Wear 2018 Runway Denim Collection Part – IV

    This is the fourth and final part of the Ready to Wear 2018 denim collection from some of the important labels around the world. In this part , we bring the looks from A.P.C , Tom Ford and Stella McCartney . APC , as always , focuses on the Raw denims and brings special looks for the females. A predominantly male brand,  A.P.C is now trying to appeal to the fairer sex with long coats and short jackets in raw denims. They also bring paint splattered jeans which are not a trademark of the brand. Stella McCartney goes very casual with overalls  , coats and jackets in spring colors achieved by multi process washing including overdyeds. Tom Ford uses unwashed denims and use styling to create a visually appealing collection of complete double, triple (and more..) denim dresses for females. Unwashed denims with great lustre and fall have been used by the designer to get attractive looks for females – even getting bras, shoes and purses with the same fabric. The challenge is for the mills to create fabrics which can enable create such collections by the designers like him.

    Ready To Wear 2018 Runway Denim Collection Part – III

    Further to our previous two articles on Ready to Wear 2018 collections from luxury labels, we bring the next few ones in the article below. The list includes Alexander Wang – who focuses on using embellishments and studds on one leg to give that premium touch besides distressed shorts paired with leather leggings to give ladies freedom to experiment with their denims . Antonio Marras brings back the brocade and embroidered looks of the Victorian era in denim jackets .Sonia Rykel uses the , currently in trend, light and dark colored panels of unwashed denims and elegant stitching and Zadig and Voltaire again uses unwashed lustrous denims to use only topstitching and minor embellishments to create luxury effects on denim. Unwashed denims have been increasingly used by the labels for their collections and it entails that the mills must make the denim fabrics which have enough character, enough luster and enough flair and fall to be used without any support from washing to stand out on its own as a fashion fabric !

The three  colors available in the capsule collection: ‘Dark Plum’, ‘Asfalt’ and ‘Mazarine Blue’, are made from the non-edible parts of beetroot and saw palmetto, left over from agriculture industry or herbal extraction.

  • Ready To Wear 2018 Runway Denim Collection Part – I

    Ready To Wear 2018 Runway Denim Collection Part – I

    Many labels have brought out their Ready to Wear Spring Collections for 2018 on the runway. We try to capture the essence of collections from luxury labels like  Versace, Dior, Chanel and Alexander Mcqueen. While Versace created “BLUE GOLD” looks  with their combination of denim jackets /jeans with heavily gold colored skirts and tops; Chanel played soft   with different interpretations of a multi color streaked indigo fabric in tops and bottoms. Christian Dior used variegated washed panels of same fabric to combine to create elegant coats and pants with netted indigo caps adding to the aristocratic looks from denim . Alexander Mcqueen played with multiple seams , disjointed sleeves and fabric combinations of non-denim for their Ready to Wear collection.
